    I was 56 thru 58 years old when I lost 75 pounds. Kept it off for 5 years. We can do it.

    I am 55 and lost weight in the past. But it has been 5 years, job loss, and a divorce later and I gained it all back plus. SO NOW, I am finally at that place where I am READY...to crawl out of my funk, take charge of my life again. I am determined...and I can be stubborn. LOL! I have 81pounds to lose.

    Hey guys, I'm 58 want to lose 35 lbs. seems impossible, no matter what I do the scale doesn't seem to notice! This is a restart for me and could really use the support from similarly situated friends!

    I am 61. It took me 4 years to lose 65 lbs. I have 10 more to go. By taking it slowly I have had the time to change my eating habits. It's all about portion control and choosing healthy alternatives and exercise. I walk 3-6 mi./day. Now that I am close to my goal, I've joined Myfitnesspal to track my food. Good luck on your journey! You can add me as a friend.

    I will be 40 in June... not sure if that count's as "older", lol. (I like to think not!) I have over 100 pounds to lose, so this new journey of mine is going to be a long one! I just started back at this again a couple weeks ago and have lost about 12 lbs so far. I am always looking to add people and have people add me, so anyone is welcome to send a request.
    Good luck everyone!

    Would very much like to be your friend.

    I'm Jen. 64 years old -- and tired of the yo-yo dieting.

    I still look somewhat younger I am told and I just want to be fit as I get older and
    not be like some who really go down hill. I enjoy seeing Betty White and Dick Van *kitten* --
    they are growing old gracefully. That's want I want to do!

    Please contact me to be buddies on here. Let's set a goal, keep in touch and DO IT!!!

    Thank you! Jen
